The third season of the popular BBC show The Traitors, hosted by Claudia Winkleman, has already captivated viewers with its thrilling plot twists and intense competition.
Yet, despite all the drama, one contestant has managed to fly under the radar, remaining mostly unnoticed by both fans and fellow players.
Alex Stays Low-Key Amid High-Stakes Drama
So far, the show has seen plenty of action—contestants being banished, murdered, and eliminated after incorrect guesses.
One of the standout moments was when Armani, a 28-year-old contestant, was exposed as a Traitor.
Yet, despite the dramatic developments, there’s one person whose name viewers struggle to remember: Alex, the 29-year-old care manager from Whitby.
Alex has kept a low profile throughout the season, hardly featured on screen and barely making a mark in the competition.
Unlike his fellow contestants, he doesn’t even have a flashy social media presence.
His Instagram, with only 1,033 followers, reflects his disinterest in public attention.
His bio simply states, “Frequent user of the words cripes and jeezo. All about that peace and love man.”
Could Alex Be the Silent Contender for the Final?
While Alex might be flying under the radar, his sharp instincts haven’t gone unnoticed.
In fact, he was the first contestant to identify Armani as a Traitor, which suggests that he has a keen sense for the game.
Fans of the show have taken to social media, with some speculating that his lack of airtime could signal something big.
Could Alex be a finalist, staying hidden until the final moments?
Former The Traitors contestant Paul Gorton, who appeared in last year’s series, believes Alex’s subtle approach could work to his advantage.
Paul wrote on X (formerly Twitter), “Really like Alex too, seems smart and staying hidden.”
Fans responded, with some admitting they hadn’t noticed Alex until recently, while others speculated that his low-profile strategy might mean he’s destined to make it to the end.
Fans Speculate Alex’s Role in the Game
The mystery surrounding Alex’s presence on the show has sparked numerous discussions.
One fan shared Alex’s promo picture, asking, “Who the f**k even is this btw?” The responses were varied—some viewers admitted they hadn’t even noticed him, while others speculated that his quiet nature could mean he’s a strong contender for the final.
Some believe that Alex is the ultimate undercover player, with one commenting, “Think he’s the bookies favourite to win.”
Another pointed out that contestants who receive little airtime often make it far in the competition, only to be featured more heavily later on.
Why Alex Decided to Apply for The Traitors
In a recent interview, Alex shared the reason he decided to apply for the show.
“The first time I watched the show, I thought the whole concept was so cool—psychological warfare and a game show,” Alex explained.
“I watched it with my mother-in-law, and she said, ‘I think you’d be really good at this.’
I mulled it over, watched the second season, and then I saw that you could apply for the next.
I thought, you know what, I think I’m going to do that.”
Whether Alex will continue to stay under the radar or make a dramatic move in the coming episodes remains to be seen, but one thing is for sure—his quiet demeanor might be a clever strategy in this high-stakes game.
